iTunes issue with specific ReMix

[WolfenAmphithere]

I downloaded the ReMix "Dark World Prelude and March" by Jaroban (LoZ:ALttP) quite a long time ago, but I had completely forgotten about it until today, because I've never been able to play it in iTunes. HOWEVER, it does play in Quicktime player, and did on Windows Media Player back when I had a PC. I've tried it on several computers I've owned, and it has NEVER worked in iTunes, (any version, as far as I can tell). Today, I decided to poke around my computer a bit again, looking for an answer, and when I came here to see if downloading it again (which I've tried before, never has worked). This time, however, I right clicked and hit "open in iTunes" and it finally showed up in the list, but the time column said "continuous", and it didn't play. Does anyone know why this might occur like that? Has anyone else even had that problem?

We're aware of the issue, which had something to do with the encoding. Down the line we may be able to swap in a fixed version, but that will probably be months down the line.

But if you just want to fix it for yourself, download the Windows version of MP3val (http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/) and repair the file yourself. It may be able to fix other MP3s in your collection that don't properly play on iTunes, etc.

...Windows version of MP3val (http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/) and repair the file yourself...

except for the only slightly small problem of not having a Windows (or linux) computer >_>; (it's a Mac, and doesn't have any other OS installed...)

It's one of the things being worked on (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=20433), could be fixed by the next torrent. Whenever that is. 2011.

I have the same problem as you do, Wolfen. Dunno what other tracks are affected, but they work in Quicktime, so if you just want to hear that one, just put it on loop there.

Well I hope 2011 gets here quickly then :P
